Controls have been designed specifically with the iPhone's touch-screen in mind, making the game easy to get into, yet as difficult as ever to master. You control a spaceship and must guide it across a scrolling terrain, battling obstacles along the way. The ship is armed with a forward-firing weapon, and bombs; each weapon has its own button. The ship must avoid colliding with the terrain and other enemies, while simultaneously maintaining its limited fuel supply, which diminishes over time. More fuel can be acquired by destroying the green fuel tanks. The game is divided into six sections, each with a different style of terrain and different obstacles. There is no intermission between each section; the game simply scrolls into the new terrain. Points are awarded based upon the number of seconds of being alive, and on destroying enemies and fuel tanks. In the final section, the player must destroy a "base". Once this has been accomplished, a flag denoting a completed mission is posted at the bottom right of the screen. The game then continues by returning you to the first section once more, with a slight increase in difficulty. As a development of the original, this version includes power-ups and achievements, both of which challenge you more than ever before! There are weapons power-ups, score multipliers, shields and life-guards - earn achievements (which get harder and harder) to unlock certain types of power-up and to boost your score. There are 3 Game Center leaderboards now, Scores, Progress and Achievements, plus the local scores as before. ## Rocket Raider Rating Breakdown in United Kingdom - 5 stars: 15 (75%) - 4 stars: 3 (15%) - 3 stars: 0 (0%) - 2 stars: 2 (10%) - 1 stars: 0 (0%) ## Rocket Raider Reviews in United Kingdom ### **--- "Fatal Flaw" Great game, going back the original scramble. Unfortunately, the bomb button overlaps the white home indicator bar that appears to replace the home button on iPhones (I am using 11 Pro Max) and therefore you intermittently touch the bar - as a result of that, the window moves then returns, interrupting the game and causing it to start going again but with no ability to move the ship after the restart. Needs that fixed to be playable on iPhone. 5 Stars if that can be fixed!!!!!!!! -- Rob Hillman, 2021-04-21 ### ****- "Retro Raider" Its great ! I think it is harder than the original because of the controls. It would be good if you reposition the buttons to or an option for left handed players. -- Renegade Master, 2021-03-12 ### ***** "Best game ever" Best game ever -- FlavellJ, 2020-07-11 ### *---- "iPhone Users,Don't Buy!!" IF YOU OWN AN IPHONE DONT BUY THIS GAME. The game is good,best version of the game we used to play back in the day,....but! The training part does not work. If you select it the screen freezes and you have to close and restart. Also,when you enter your name in the high score the same things happens again and you have to close the app. If this was a free game I wouldn't be bothered but as it is I paid for this and it doesn't work. IF YOU OWN AN IPHONE DONT BUY THIS GAME. The developer last updated this game in 2011 so clearly has no interest in sorting out the problems,but is quite happy to take your money!!!! -- TheOriginalHardKnox, 2016-05-23 ### *---- "Doesn't work!" So basically, the app doesn't work. It randomly loads in the wrong orientation and won't respond to tilting the device, then simply doesn't respond to taps/touches on the screen. Utter waste of money and I hope the owner refunds me and Apple remove it for the store. -- snoopfish, 2016-04-24 ### ***-- "Freezer" Game freezes on training screen also on the high score table, please fix it. As I love this game. -- Jimbobtwobob, 2016-02-21 ### *---- "Shame: Crashes and freezes every time." Joystick control is a bit poor but aside from that the look and feel is pretty close to the original. However when I play the game on any of my four devices it crashes every time, 20 to 40 seconds in. Sadly deleted. -- Ricrasj, 2016-02-14 ### *---- "Freezing." Deleted and re-installed twice only for it to freeze after entering your name on now both occassions. A true classic, but a shame! -- andwhyno1, 2015-12-19 ### ***** "Nostalgic and good" Big fan of this game back in the day. Memories ! Well they all came again playing this little version. A joy to play again 👍🏼 -- john8892, 2015-12-15 ### *---- "Waste of Money" Freezes every minute or so, when paused will not re-start. Absolute sh1te. -- Jobi71, 2015-09-14 [View all Rocket Raider reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Rocket Raider Available In - [United Kingdom](https://apptail.io/app/rocket-raider-RHDb/united-kingdom) - [New Zealand](https://apptail.io/app/rocket-raider-RHDb/new-zealand) - [Iceland](https://apptail.io/app/rocket-raider-RHDb/iceland) - [Australia](https://apptail.io/app/rocket-raider-RHDb/australia) - [Kuwait](https://apptail.io/app/rocket-raider-RHDb/kuwait) - [North Macedonia](https://apptail.io/app/rocket-raider-RHDb/north-macedonia) - [South Korea](https://apptail.io/app/rocket-raider-RHDb/south-korea) - [Ecuador](https://apptail.io/app/rocket-raider-RHDb/ecuador) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
